Chapter 2762: Will the bullfighters break through the iron wall, or will the German chariots smash e

"CCTV! CCTV!"

"Welcome everyone to watch the first match of the 2020 European Cup quarter-finals on time!"

"The two teams are the defending champions Germany and the top European team Spain!"

"Germany is the team that has won the most European Cups, five times in total!"

"Spain is tied for second place, having won the title in 1964 and 2008!"

If it were in the previous life, Spain would still win the championship in 2012, and with the 2024 European Cup, Spain would be the undisputed strongest team in the European Cup.

But Ye Chen's appearance changed too many things.

Whether it is the number of championships won or the teams promoted.

In fact, the German team changed everything from the group stage.

But Ye Chen is not afraid of these.

there is always a solution to a problem.

If you are afraid of this and that, how can you be called a football god?

Through He Wei's introduction on the spot, the fans learned some simple information.

For example, the last time they met in the European Cup was eight years ago today, when Germany defeated Spain and won the championship.

So this game is a battle of revenge.

In general, the protagonist of the story endures hardships and finally kills his enemy with one sword.

At the end, they can still shout, "Thirty years in the east, thirty years in the west, don't bully the young and poor."

But reality is not fiction.

Whether Spain is the hero of the novel or the ultimate villain, we will have to wait and see how the next game goes!

As the complicated pre-match ceremony ended, players from both teams stood in the center of the field.

Spain took the lead in this game.

But before that, I have to introduce the lists of both sides.

"The German team's formation today is still 433!"

"As goalkeeper, we sent Neuer, the legendary 'gatekeeper', to guard the goal."

"On the back line, Kimmich, Rudiger, Sule and Gosens form a tough defense!"

"Gundogan and Kroos control the tempo in the midfield, while Wang Chu brings creativity and energy!"

"Havertz, Ye Chen and Gnabry, three strikers with different styles, are ready to go!"

"The German Tanks charge towards victory with a lineup that is both experienced and energetic."

"The Spanish side also used a 433 formation."

"The goalkeeper position is De Gea, the steady 'goalkeeper' guarding the goal line!"

"Alba, Pau Torres, Laporte and Azpilicueta form a flexible yet strong defense line!"

"Pedri, Rodri and Koke form a midfield three with excellent passing and control!"

"The three attackers, Sarabia, Morata and Ferran Torres, with their smart movement, fulcrum role and sense of smell in front of the goal, make the Spanish team have a delicate and sharp offensive style!"

"When the matadors met the German chariots, would the matadors break through the iron wall, or would the German chariots smash everything?"

"let us wait and see!"

When the game reached a critical moment, even the lineup introductions became interesting.

At the same time, the event officially started after Oliver blew the whistle.

When it comes to the knockout stage, no team will rush for success.

After all, they are all thousand-year-old foxes and know each other's little thoughts.

Spain's De La Fuente had only one requirement in the first half, which was to control the ball as much as possible and wear down the German team's fighting spirit through passing the ball.

Make them run around.

But the German team clearly has its own plans.

According to Löw's tactical analysis, if Germany wants to beat Spain today, it must do at least the following three things.

The first point is to disrupt the passing and control rhythm of the Spanish midfield.

Spain's core strength lies in midfield control, but the three draws show that their control is not impeccable.

German players must maintain high-intensity midfield pressing, specifically mark key players and compress passing space.

The second point is to use your body and high altitude advantages.

From a very early stage, Spanish players were small, quick and agile (relatively).

If the German team tries to pass and control the ball against them, it would undoubtedly be like showing off one's strength in front of Guan Gong.

Therefore, we can use our own strengths to attack the opponent's weaknesses.

The third point is naturally to control the rhythm of the game and make on-the-spot adjustments.

Löw asked the players to give up some of the ball, but not to let the opponent enter their dangerous area easily.

At the same time, emphasis is placed on the speed of counterattack.

Spanish players are not slow.

But it also depends on who they are compared with.

All the players in the world are slow in front of Ye Chen!

Who made Ye Chen the fastest man in football?

Even Bolt can't compare to him!

After all, Bolt is good at sprinting, while Ye Chen is good at running wildly on the football field.

Different venues, different habits, and naturally different abilities will be displayed.

This much-anticipated match got stuck into a fight in the middle lane right at the start.

The combination of Rodri, Pedri and Koke requires both toughness and technique.

But Germany's Gundogan, Kroos and Wang Chu are also top-notch players.

With other players staying in position, Spain was unable to break through Germany's defense for a while.

3 minutes 10 seconds.

Gundogan got the ball and wanted to turn around and pass it.

But Koke in the middle stretched out his foot in advance and poked the ball to Morata in front.

The Spanish team had a chance to counterattack.

Morata, who had the ball, did not turn around and dribble the ball because he could feel Rudiger rushing towards him from behind.

Today we did not use the combination of Hummels and Rudiger, but Rudiger and Sule.

The reason is Hummels' lack of physical fitness.

After all, there were only two days of rest this time, and for a veteran, it is really impossible to recover so quickly.

"Boom!"

Morata passed the ball to Pedri who was unguarded on the right.

Pedri is a top midfielder that has emerged recently.

After one season, he got a new nickname, Pedder Donkey.

What's the saying?

Sleep later than a dog, get up earlier than a chicken, work more than a donkey, and eat less than a pig!

Donkeys are the kind of creatures that work a lot but eat very little.

This is the case with Pedri, he has never missed any competitions, whether it is club or national team competitions.

He even played in several games for the Spanish U21 team.

In a year, he played more games than Ye Chen.

The moment Pedri got the ball, Ferran Torres on the right had already started to accelerate.

Just when Pedri wanted to pass the ball, the retreating Kroos immediately pounced on him.

They also often play against each other in La Liga, so they are very familiar with each other.

At such a critical point in the counterattack, we must not let Pedri pass the ball easily!

Sure enough, due to this interference, Ferran Torres's trip was in vain.

Pedri could only pass the ball back to Morata who was running sideways to receive the ball, while Ferran Torres who was rushing forward also quickly braked and retreated.

Just when everyone thought the attack was about to come to an abrupt end, Ferran Torres made a long pass.

Find Saravia at the far end.

In Paris Saint-Germain, Sarabia can only be a substitute.

But in Spain, he is a regular starter.

There is no way, both Martial and Di Maria are better than him.

Of course, even without these two, there is still Neymar.

The football flew across half the court and accurately found Sarabia who was making a forward run.

As a Spanish player, Sarabia's positioning and ball-stopping skills are truly top-notch.

With just a tip of his toes, he rushed into the penalty area.

This is to take advantage of the situation to break into the penalty area and try to get a one-on-one chance.

But Neuer in front of the goal reacted faster.

Just as Sarabia broke into the penalty area, Neuer took advantage of the momentum and decisively pounced on the football.
